Lyrics
GYPSY BONES
The carnival wheeled into the dusty field
Went to see the old palm reader
Said my girl seems to have restless feet
I'm afraid that I can't keep her
Woman raised her veil, saw my love line
Shook her head said I see rough times
The girl's got gypsy bones
A wild horse born to roam
Your fortune says she'll come back again
If you don't try to control
Her gypsy bones
My girl rolled out of bed At 5 a.m
Didn't try to stop her from goin
She kissed me goodbye, I watched her Mustang fly
And her fading tail lights glowing
I heard the fortune teller's words
Saying let her run and she'll return
CHORUS
Got a postcard with lipstick kisses
Sayin baby I miss you
I can feel the magic working in her heart
And my fortune's comin true
I love her gypsy bones
She's a wild horse born to roam
My fortune says she'll come back again
If I don't try to control
Her gypsy bones
